Stamping Sunday Blog Hop – Memories & More

Memories & More

Welcome to our monthly Stamping Sunday Blog Hop and this month the design team has created with the amazing Memories & More card packs from Stampin’ Up! We’re also happy to be hopping with the super talented RuthTrice this month, I’m already looking forward to see her projects.

What is Memories & More? A quick and easy way to keep your memories. You fill so called pocket pages with your pictures, fun themed cards from the Memories & More card packs and you add your memories in writing. This form of memory keeping is fun for everyone. From beginner to advanced stampers, from young to old and from creative guru to someone who doesn’t think she/he’s not creative at all. Of course, you can also use the Memories & More cards to make cards, scrap layouts and even mini albums.

color theory pocket pages

For my first project, I’ve created two 6 x 8″ pocket pages with the Color Theory Card Pack. I’ve slowly been filling this Memories & More album with pocket pages to commemorate our wonderful vacation in Canada in 2016 and with these pages I captured our first day in Banff NP. I did this by creating a 6 x 8″ Scrap Layout and a pocket page.

The cards make it so easy to fill a pocket page. I embellished the cards with the, totally applicable, Picnic With You bundle. By combining the picture with the story, we’ll never forget that special moment.

Petal Passion pocket mini album

The second project of the day is a pocket mini album which feature the Petal Passion card pack and designer series paper. Of course, I made it into a Canada mini album and I can keep it in one of the large pocket pages in my Memories & More album.

This album holds loads of photos and space to journal our memories. In the slide show below you’ll see how I filled the album. It was such a joy to make and made me relive all those moments again. That’s the beauty of memory keeping for me. It’s not just a creative process but also a way to stand still and remember the wonderful times.

Danielle ~ I love your beautiful mini album! And your pocket page is a perfect example of how to add just a little more than the cards. I had not thought about using the Hand Lettered set for creating scrapbook labels — I will now!
